You did really good on your FMQ'ing for the first time! Congrats on your first quilt! Have you already started your second? :)

Thanks all! :)

I have another couple of projects that I've started to piece the tops on (including the BOM blocks on this board), and some fabric for another one waiting to be cut. I think I've caught the bug!

I found it hard to keep the stitches the same length when FMQing - there are areas on the quilt with some really long stitches and others with really short ones. Need to practice syncing up the pedal speed and the speed you move the quilt at :)

Very nice quilt. Are you going to keep it for yourself? I wish i had kept my first quilt. What pattern is this? I am thinking a queen size would be nice for my bedroom. Keep up the great work. Your fmq looks awesome!

Your quilt is very pretty and I would never know it was your first. The fmq looks great. It won't be long until you have the speed and hand going together at a steady pace.
